AS SEEN IN FrGURE 1. 



jMEMBER. THE TOP OF ALL DRAFTS IS ALWAYS AT YOUR LEFT HAND. 




THIS CUT IS ONE-FOURTH OF LIFE-SIZE ORAFT. 



First — Lay your system on the paper, square end of 

system at your right hand, having the square from you and 

curve side of system nearest to you. Now let 16 inches on 

your system come IM below the edge of your paper at your 

left hand. Now dot at 16 inches, also at lb}4 inches, also 

at 13 inches, also at lOJa inches. Remember, that the 

distance between the 10>^ inch dot and the 15?^ inch dot 

must always be evenly divided ; also remember, that the 

10 --J inch dot must always be 'I'-i inches and the under arm 

measure above the waist line. (See Figure 1). Now draw 

a line from the 16 inch dot down to the corner of your 

square or to your right. Now draw a line from where you 

stopped at corner towards you three inches and dot on 

said line at half an inch from corner, (as in Figure 1), also 

at 1/^ inch from corner or one inch from half inch dot. 

Now draw the right hand end of system a little towards 

you and draft a straight line from the half inch dot made 

up to the lOH inch dot above. (See Figure 1). Now, 

attention ! Turn your system end for end or square end 

•'Our left hand, still keeping square with the main back 

' curve side towards you. Now square the corner 

' 16 inch dot. Now see hand 1 on the system ; 

little 12 or size of neck 12, make a dot at 

'ine from the 12 to the 16 inch dot. 

'^ the left and draft with curve 5 

" 15/^ inch to the end of the 

'"* neck. (See Figure 1). 



Now square the system short end against main line 
at 13 inch dot and draw out a line from main line b}4 
inches; also another just like it from the 10)4 inch dot. 
(See draft in Figure 1). Now place the V as seen at end 
of curve 7 and curve 4 on system, at end of I'-a inch line 
on top, at the neck, and let curve 4 pass over the end of 
the upper 5>< inch line and draw the shoulder, (as shown 
in Figure 1). Now draw from the end of the top ^H inch 
line to the end of the other t% inch line below with curve 
4. (See Figure 1). Now see curve 5 on your system, and 
place the very point of curve 5 on the system at the end of 
lower 5 'a inch line, letting curve 4, which forms part of 
curve 5, pass down over the IH inch dot on the waist line. 
Draw a line from waist line upwards. (See Figure 1). Now 
dot in on the low 5H inch line from lO'a inch dot, 1 inch. 
Now place the corner of square on last dot made and let 
the square pass down over the half inch dot on the waist. 
Now draw the line from the waist line downwards, (as 
shown in Figure 1). Now draw the right hand end of 
system a little towards you, till square passes over the 1 ^ 
inch dot on waist line, and draw a line from waist line down- 
wards as before ; but be sure the corner of your square is 
still on the 1 inch dot above. 

This completes the Back — so draft it again, as practice 
makes perfect. 



How TO Draft the Side Form, or Second 
Piece of a Basque. 



AS SEEN IN FIGURE 2. 



First — Extend your waist line from the back towards 
you, say twelve inches in all, from the back ; then, stand 
square end of system on the end of said line, curve side of 
system towards you. Be sure system stands square on 
last line made. Now draw a line from waist line or last 
line drawn upwards or to your left lO'a inches and dot 
back l}( inches or at 9^ inches. Now from the end of 
the lO's inch line at top draw out a line towards the back 
% inch, (as shown in Figure 2). Now from the end of the 
X inch line to the 9li inch dot draw a line with curve 5, 
(as in Figure 2). Now place curve 5 on the back again, as 
though you was going to re-draft the curve 5 on the back. 
Notice exactly where the waist line comes on curve 4 ; it 
is at 5^ inches in this case. Now draw system towards 
you till the end of curve 5 comes at the end of the ii inch 
line, at top of lOJ^ inch line ; let the 5?4 inch on curve-^^" 
strike the waist line wherever it may ; but be sure to have 
the end of curve 5 on the end of the H inch line. Now 
draw a line from waist line up to the 'A inch line above 
along curve 5. Now measure from line just drawn at waist 
towards you two inches, making a dot there. Now place 
S. from V or arrow, which is on curve 5, at the 9?4 inch 
dot on the lOH inch line, letting curve 4 pass down over 
the last dot made on waist line and draw line from waist 
line up to 9/4 inch dot, (as shown in Figure 2). Now dot 
the centre of this piece at the waist and square down six 
inches below waist line, drawing a line. Now measure 
from line just drawn towards the back two inches, making 
a dot there, and from the dot draw a straight line on a 
slant up to waist line, (as shown in Figure 2). Now 
measure towards you 2K inches from the bottom of the si.\ 
inch line, making a dot there. Now from said dot to the 
waist line draw a line with curve by placing arrow at waist 
line, on which vou see the following words : Hip on S. F. 
Look for this arrow. 

This completes the Side Form, if properly done. 



MEASURES AND uui 

TO LEARN TO DRAFT FRONT OF 



THIS MUST BE THE THIRD PIECE OF A BASQUE YOU DRAF 
AS SHOWN IN FIGURE 3. 



Position.— Lay your system on the paper, with the top end of s'- 
your left hand, or, in other words, the square end at your left ; be 
long square is nearest to you, and that the curve side of system is froii, you. 
Lay system 1^ inches from edges of paper nearest to you. First — Now make 
a dot at the top, three inches from corner of square or opposite little 12 on , 

system ; see 1- 1 on system pointing to it ; don't move your system till 

you are told to. Second — Dot at 1^ inches from corner of system or in front 

of 1- 2 on system. Third — Now dot in front of 1- 3. Fourth— Now 

dot at three inches down from corner or in front of (hand 2 on system) or size 
of neck 12. Now draw a line from first dot made, to the corner, and start 
down the front 22 inches (as shown in Figure 3). Now slide your system to 
the right, till the corner of square is at dot 4 or fourth dot made. Now dot 

below corner of square 3 inche'

for fifth dot, also at 5 incx._ 
down, also at 8 inches down, 
also 9 inches down and 13^ 
inches down. This brings us 
down to the waist line. (See 
Figure 3). Next — Square short 
end of system up against main 
line at 13^ inch dot and draft 
oulj the waist line 20 inches ; do 
not move your system till you 
have dotted the waist line, Dot 
in from the 13^ inch dot a 
half inch on waist line, then two 
inches, then at ZM inches, then 
at hyi inches, then at six 
inches from 13J^ inch dot, then 
at 9 inches from 13M inch dot. 
The distance between the 6 and 
9 inch dot is always governed by 
the waist measure as seen in 
scale ; to find the width at waist, 
(see scale). 

Now look well at Figure 3 and 

at see how to draft the bust 

curve and draft it. Remember, 

the fullness of the bust must always be a trifle higher than the darts. Attention must be paid to this 

as it is quite important. Next, square the short end of system up against main line at third dot made 

and draw out a line 9 inches ; said line is the shoulder line. (See Figure 3). 

Next, draft out the neck as follows: Twist your tape around your pencil on first dot made a'^ 
hold your tape on the very corner of square at top ; hold tape fast on corner ; but let penc-' 
around to the 3 below in front. This gives a true circle and never fails. Next, draft o- 
5 inch dot, half the width of chest measure, which in this case is 12, so we will US'* 
will see in Fig. 3 that between the bust curve and main line we lose ^ in--' 
6j^ in all. Next, draft out a line 9 inches from the 6 dot made. T*-'

(Fig- 3.) 



THE ALL ROUND ARTIST'S GUIDE. 



shoulder line 4,*^ inches, dot it and draw the shoulder ; see 
that the curve sinks down into the shoulder. Now draft 
the arms eye with arms eye curve, using as a guide the 
end of the shoulder and the end of the width of chest line ; 
let the curve come down to bottom of arms eye line, but 
not below. Next, place the end of curve 4 on the end of 
the bottom of arms eye line and measure down 8 inches 
towards the 9 inch dot on waist line, make a dot at 8 inches 
and draw a line upwards ; then dot IH inches back, or 
below, as shown in under arm seam in Figure 3. Next, 
apply your Front Test Measure by letting 1 'i of the corner 
of square project above the first dot made, letting 19J^ 
inches on your system strike the curve line below the old 



waist line wherever it may. (See 19^ in Figure 3). Well, 

dot your draft in the same way, and from that 19J^ inch 

dot, to the bottom of the under arm seam, draw —■*«<>'■' ' 

line, as shown in Figure 3. Next, from the 9 

waist line draw down a line 6 inches, and from 

the 6 inches dot out from you 2K inches. (See bTgureTi). 

Now draft on the hip by placing on the bottom of the 

under arm seam, the hip on front 1-, as seen on curve 

5 on system. (See system). Next, make your darts by 
standing a straight line up from the centre of each dart, 
squaring up from the waist line. Then draft in your darts 
with curve 4 from points shown on system. 
This completes the drafting of the front. 



HOW TO DRAFT THE UNDER-ARM GORE, 



First — extend the old waist line out from the 13>^ 
inch dot twenty inches in all and make a dot at fourteen 
inches from 13^ dot. Now stand system square up on waist 
line at said 14 inch dot last made and draw up a line from 
waist line to your left 9'.> inches, dotting back at eight 
inches on said line just drawn. Now square system at the 
top of said 9}i inch line and draw a line from you Ik inch 
long, (as shown in Figure 4). Now, from the end of the 
1^ inch line just drawn to the 8 inch dot draft with curve 
5, curving downward into the goods. Now measure from 
the bottom of the 9H inch line on the waist line from you 
three inches and dot it. Now place the V that is at the 
end of curve 7 and curve 4, on the end of the 1% line above. 



letting the cur\^e pass down over the last dot made on the 
waist line. Be sure the square is the nearest to you and 
square end of system at your left hand. If so, draw a line 
from waist line up to the end of the IH inch line above. 
Now from the two dots on waist line, square a line down 6 
inches and dot from you, 1/4 inches from bottom of 6 inch 
line on side nearest the back. Now do the same on the 
side nearest the front, as this gives spring on the hips. 
(See Figure 4). 

The last thing to be done with a Basque is to test the 
hips and apply the shoulder balance measure. See to it 
before you cut your Basque. 



^oroxjo" i*€:it^o:!v^. 



When the bottom of arms eye line is over ten inches, 
add the balance over to the top of the under-arm gore (as 
shown on page 10) in draft of two under-arm gores. Two 
under-arm gores are needed for all persons when the bottom 
of arms eye line is over eleven inches. In any case where 
you put in two under-arm gores always add the width of 
the piece from the back dart to the under-arm seam at the 
waist and the width of the under-arm gore at the waist 
together ; when added, then divide the full amount by 
three and you have the width of the piece from the back 
dart to the under-arm seam, also the width of both under- 
arm gores at the waist. For an illustration, suppose the 
piece from the back dart to the under-arm seam is four and 



a half inches and the under-arm gore at the waist is also 
four and a half inches, then if we add them together we have 
nine inches. Well, if we divide 9 by 3, it-gives us three inches 
in each of the three pieces at the waist. In this way we 
get the extra goods at the waist to make two under-arm 
gores. Now if we want to put in an extra side form we 
will have to take two inches from the full amount, whatever 
it may be, before we divide it, then divide the balance- 
The two inches taken away is the two inches we need at 
the waist, in the extra side form. Two side forms are only 
used for very large persons, while two under-arm gores are 
often used. Look on page 10 and you will see the draft of 
the two under-arm gores, also two side forms.

Under- Arm Gore. 

The under-arm gore is always the same width at the waist as the piece from the back dart to the under-arm seam is at 
the waist. The side form at the waist is always two inches in width ; the back at the waist is always one inch in width. 

Notice. — The under-arm gore is always IH inches in width at the top unless you have added some to it from the bottom 
of arm — eye line— in which case you will need two under-arm gores.

Lines on drafts are sewing lines. Sewing seams have to be allowed everywhere except in the arms, eye and neck. 
\ There you cut out, following the lines on your draft. 

/ Nevs?" Beginners, Attention! 

\ This book should be well-read — twelve times — before you start drafting. In drafting, go slow at first — stop to think 
i and ask yourself the question, "What is next.'" before moving your system; then look at direction and see what is next. 
^ Always commence by drafting backs first, side form second, front third, and under-arm gore fourth. Retnembet, the top of all 
drafts are at your left hand. ^ 

V Shoulders on Basques. 

Your front shoulder must always be one-half inch shorter than the back shoulder. Backs are always perfect. Then 'we 
=houlder on draft, thus dispensing with measuring for length of shoulder on the person. Above said half inch is 
'^'■ont when basting together. Akvays hold the back shoulder of your basque downwards when sewing on 
"•^ sewing by hand. 

^EMEMBER that this system is for cutting from any fashion plate in the market

HOW TO DRAFT A SLEEVE. 



First — Draw a straight line (as in Figure 5) from 
top, to where bottom will be, say 22 inches. Re- 
member, the top is at your left hand. Now, from 
the top of line just drawn, measure down four inches 
and dot it. Look in your book at your draft ; it 
shows you. Now dot down thirteen inches on the 
same line and draw out a straight line six inches in 
length, and dot back at three inches. Now go up 
to the dot above at four inches, and draw out a line 
eight inches, dotting back at four inches. Now go 
up. to the top and draft out a line six inches. Now 
come down to the bottom and draw out a line eight 
inches or the same length as line drawn out from 
dot at four inch dot. Now place (top of dart 

N. S. -h as seen on system) having square end 

of system at your right hand and curves nearest to 
you, at the end of the six inch line drawn out 
from elbow, letting the curve pass down over the 
end of eight inch line below and draw the line. 
Now turn system end over end, still having curve 
sides towards you, and place the end of cifrve 4 
upon the end of the eight inch line drawn out from 
the 4 inch dot, letting curve pass down to elbow, 
and draw the line. Now place the corner of square 
on the end of the eight inch line above, that is drawn 
out from the 4 inch dot and measure down on curve 
line last drawn 16^ inches and dot it. Now from 

_^__^ las,t dot made, to the bottom of the 22 inch line, 
draw a straight line. Now measure from i 6>* inch

e arms, having it in a true circle around the person, (be 
ire it is not too high in front), then measure from the 
rominent neck bones in the front, down to tape. The 
istance from collar bone to tape is the distance on your 
raft from the neck down to the bottom of arm's eye line,
